_____

Can you climb inside a stranger’s life and make him love you?

Alice knows every detail of Tom’s life. She has taken a side hustle as a cleaner just to feel close to him, to wipe every smudge from his coffee cups, smooth every crease of his bed, read every email in his inbox. She is in love. And Tom will love her too - once he has met her.

While Alice masterminds the bone-shattering romance she knows they will have, she tries to morph into the woman Tom will want. And when this happens, no one - not her mother, not her sister, not her sneering co-workers - will be able to look down on her anymore.
